What's New at Liberty Mountain - Winter 2015

It is a very exciting time at Liberty Mountain as our
multi-year Master Plan begins to take shape! Below is a look
at this season's upgrades, as well as an overview of all the
additions and changes taking place throughout the resort for this
season and in the near future. We look forward to having you with
us as the future unfolds!

An all new entryway in to Liberty!

As you drive up to Liberty, you'll immediately notice a change.
The main road (Sanders Road) has been shifted and reshaped to
accommodate better traffic flow as well as a new skier and bus
drop-off area. The existing Plaza circle that many have come to
know well, will now be pedestrian accessible only. These
changes to the Plaza area are intended to improve the overall guest
experience by removing all of the bus, car and truck traffic from
an area where some many of our guests gather. In the
summer of 2015, this pedestrian Plaza area will be further
transformed into a multi season village center - the winter months
will offer ice skating and various kiosk amenities, while summer
months will provide an all new wedding ceremony venue and special
event area for music or other performances.

The New Highland Lodge!

Construction on the new Highland Lodge has now begun! This grand
new lodge is expected to be completed in July of 2015. Our new
lodge will feature two new restaurants, a grand event room with a
large outdoor terrace overlooking the golf course, additional
meeting and banquet spaces, and 17 new hotel rooms and suites on
the upper level. Additionally, our new Highland Lodge will
have an indoor pool, a spacious hot tub area with separate saunas,
as well as a salon and spa. On the lower level, we'll have an
expanded Pro Shop complete with two state-of-the-art golf
simulators, beverage services and other retail clothing and gift
items. The beautiful new building with exposed wood and stone
architecture will set the tone for the future renovation of
existing resort buildings and the completion of our Master Plan in
the years to come!

On the Golf Course

The scenic beauty of the Carroll Valley Golf Course has been
enhanced by the replacement of four of the on-course bridges
crossing Tom's Creek. In addition, our grounds crew has been hard
at work landscaping around tee boxes and greens throughout the
course. The new Putter's Patio & Grill next to the Pro Shop has
become a great gathering and eating spot featuring cold beverages
and burgers and dogs, hot off the grill. All of this work
follows last year's improvements that included a 1.2 million dollar
state-of-the-art irrigation system. Our resort is committed
to the restoration of the Carroll Valley Golf Course and returning
it to one of the premier courses in our region.

On the Mountain

Our commitment to offering the best beginner experience
continues as we have reshaped large portions of the First Class
slope. Over 26,000 cubic yards of fill has been added to the
upper section of the First Class Area. This has effectively tripled
the amount of space at the top of the First Class Quad. This
new and additional space will allow instructors more room to form
classes, offer much more first-time teaching terrain and allow more
space for those just getting started. To help keep all this
great newly graded terrain in prime shape, we are also adding a
brand new Pisten Bully 600 groomer to our fleet! And you're
never too young to snowboard! The Burton Riglet Park for kiddos
ages 3-7 gets a new location and some expanded terrain.

Parking and Shuttle Buses

On those peak days we have found our resort a little short of
parking spaces for our guests and our employees. To help
solve this challenge, we're adding about 4 acres of additional
parking, just across from the Lower North Lot. This parking
will appear to be a "green grassy area" with little change in
appearance to what is there now, but it is really a specially
engineered, environmental friendly parking system called "TruGrid
Permeable Paving". With a price tag of around $400,000, this
system offers the stability needed to support parked cars while
still allowing water and moisture to return into the
ground. Since this new parking lot is a bit of a walk
from the main lodge, we will also be adding a new 45 passage
shuttle bus to our fleet.

New Products and Offerings

Advanced skiers will appreciate our new line of Performance
Rental Skis. Offered as a pilot program last season, this season
will offer more availability and options - and if you really like
the equipment, you can purchase it on the spot!
The number of guests who are choosing to wear a helmet while
skiing and snowboarding continues to grow. To meet these
requests, we are adding over 500 new rental helmets to our snow
sports rental inventory. And, starting this season, helmets
will be included with all Learn To Ski and Snowboard and
All-Mountain Package purchases. We are also adding some new kids
ski & snowboard rental equipment to our existing rental
fleets.

Coming Soon!

In addition to all the Master Plan projects in the base
area…

Triple Chairlift

Next summer we'll be replacing the Terrain Park J-Bar surface
lift with a CTEC Triple Chairlift! We have already purchased
this chairlift and it has been delivered to Liberty.
This completely reconditioned chairlift will match our Alpine Quad
and First Class Quad in appearance and style. It will be installed
just above (and between) the Dipsy Quad and Alpine Quad
chairlifts. Lift service will be along the left side of the
Terrain Park (looking up hill) and unload a bit further uphill than
the existing Alpine Quad Chairlift mid station. During busy
times, skiers and riders will be able to access our terrain parks
by way of two chairlifts, both this new triple lift and the
existing Alpine Quad mid station.

Fairway Springs

Liberty's newest acquisition is the stone manor house, Fairway
Springs, located along the first fairway of the golf course and on
the right of Sanders Road as you approach the main resort. Built in
1840, this historic home will be thoughtfully renovated to become a
most unique and intimate wedding and banquet venue. We
anticipate this new venue to be available in late summer of
2015.
